Thank you for the nice words. EVERYTHING is for sale if the offer is good enough...

 

As soon as I hit the lottery, I will be sure to shoot you an offer!

Out of curiousity, why the decision to go to a balance/h(ish) pipe vs. an x pipe? clearance issues or power reasons? Do you think having the pipe entrance being at a 45* angle to the oncoming gas will cause power consumption? I only ask because I have never seen a configuration designed like this.

Great looking work though!

 

I had the same question pop in my mind when I was designing it in my head. Then I remembered that fluids always flow the path of least resistance...so I built it. My crude compressed air test after it support's it shouldn't be a problem.

The proof will be on the dyno when I test it with open headers vs. the catback. If it's much more than a 2-3% difference, I will first cut out the cats and test it again. If the drop is still there, that will leave the overall design in question as I doubt the mufflers will be a problem.

Thanks

 

Just read the whole thread and this build is awesome. Loving the color of the car and I can't wait to see what this thing puts out on the dyno as well as what it runs on the track. Looking forward to more updates!

 

Custom brackets for throttle cable:



Bracket on. Changed fuel lines. Relocating ops:

 

bracket for remote coils:



shifter mounted:

 

Evap mounted:



Steam vents fully routed:

 

Mufflers on.

 

Man that right there is a thing of beauty

 

x2!

What's the computer for? Posting on tech while building the car?

 

Thanks guys.

Getting close.

 

Lookin good Roberto.

 

untuned first startup:



The sound doesn't come out right on my phone. I think it overwhelms the mic.

 

That sounds sick Roberto. looking forward to the first throttle blips. Love the ITBs for the response.

 

where is the blip ??????? Vrooooom vroooooooom vrooooooom we need it

 

Start-up before you rerouted fuel lines- or was "Y" a restriction?

 

I have a video blipping the throttle but I filmed it myself and I was too close to the exhaust. It overwhelmed the mic on my phone and sounds harsh. Weird.

The fuel lines were changed prior to first start. Not due to a restriction, but to clean up the install.

I built some stainless coolant lines to replace the corrugated metal hoses:

 

that is some nice work right there i like it give me a call

 

Good stuff Roberto.....you've got skillz brother!
